Posted on 25 April 2010 by


We’d like to thank everyone who entered our Ultimate Small Business Starter Package Giveaway, and we’d like to congratulate mattgibstein, our winner of the 12 months’ free service of RingCentral Mobile ($300 value). mattgibstein is one of the ultimately 25 winners from which five grand prize winners will also be selected for the Ultimate Small Business Start-up Package (additional $862 value, for a total value of $1162).

An email has been sent to mattgibstein, who responded to contest entry asking for people to post a comment naming these three things: 1) your favorite blog, 2) your favorite blogger, and 3) a paragraph about why #1 is your favorite blog and #2 is your favorite blogger.

His response was:

Favorite Blog: GearDiary
Not fishing hear– I stumbled upon GearDiary a few months back and I haven’t turned back. I find myself constantly checking the site for new content. I really enjoy reading just about everything that goes live. Out of all the content on GD, I’d have to say it’s the comprehensive product reviews that keep me coming back for more. PS I like the readability of the posts; although I’m a techie, I think even my non-techie friends would be able to appreciate and understand the articles on this site!

Favorite Blogger: Joshua Topolsky, Editor-In-Chief of Engadget
Josh is my favorite blogger because he incorporates wit and humor into his posts; references to pop culture are scattered throughout his posts. It’s also obvious that he’s unbelievably knowledgeable bout about technology which is a must for a tech blogger. Just a really cool dude– see him on Jimmy Fallon’s show all the time.

Congrats Matt, and good luck on the final round with the other winners!! :mrgreen:

Update 05/07/10: Along with the original winners from SDRNews, Mobility Minded, Neowin and Totally Cool Tech Podcast, Gear Diary’s winner mattgibstein was chosen as one of the five grand prize winners by Ring Central. Congratulations mattgibstein!! :-D

I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford
